At GiftCardGolf.com (" GiftCardGolf.com ," " we ," or " us "), we are committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy policy (" Privacy Policy ") describes how personal information is collected from users of our website at www.GiftCardGolf.com (the " Site "), and how that information is used and disclosed. In general, we use the information we collect from you to personalize your shopping experience. Rest assured that we do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties without your consent, other than in the limited circumstances described in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise permitted by law. Full details of our Privacy Policy are included here for your reference.

Collection of Personal Information

Personal information is information that specifically identifies an individual, such as an individual's name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card or other account number, and information about that individual's activities when directly linked to him or her, such as information about his or her purchases. Personal information also includes demographic information, such as date of birth, gender, geographic area and preferences when such information is linked to other personal information that identifies an individual. Personal information does not include "aggregate" information. Aggregate information is data collected about a group or category of products, services or customers from which individual customer identities have been removed.

Personal information such as name, e-mail address, mailing address, credit card number, and expiration date is collected to process your order.

Other personal information is collected if you voluntarily enter it in areas of My Account, such as Address Book, which is used to make your shopping experience easier.

Use of Personal Information

In general, we use personal information you provide to enhance your experience with GiftCardGolf.com and to provide you with high quality products and services. For example, we use it to process and track your purchases and other transactions via the Site, maintain a record of our dealings with you, respond to your inquiries, update you on our products and services (and develop new products and services), remind you of important occasions for those you care about, conduct surveys, contests and sweepstakes via the Site, and to personalize our Site for you. We will also use your e-mail address occasionally notify you of special offers from our merchant partners.

We may also receive information from third parties with whom we have business relationships and may combine this information with the other personal information we maintain about you . If we do so, this Privacy Policy governs such information.

Disclosure of Personal Information

GiftCardGolf.com does not sell, trade, or rent your personal information (this includes any information you choose to store in the My Account section of our Site, including your Address Book) to third parties without your prior consent, except in the limited circumstances set forth in this Privacy Policy or as may be permitted by law.

When you place an order for a gift certificate from one of our merchant partners, we provide that specific partner with your name and address along with that of the recipient. We do not provide your e-mail address or that of the recipient.

We occasionally provide aggregate information regarding the use of our Site to partners, but these statistics never include personally identifying information.

We also disclose personal information when we believe it is appropriate to comply with the law (e.g., a lawful subpoena, warrant or court order); to enforce or apply this Privacy Policy or our other policies or agreements; to initiate, render, bill, and collect for amounts owed to us; to protect our or our customers' rights, property or safety; to protect our customers from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful use of, our Site; or if we reasonably believe that an emergency involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to any person requires disclosure of communications or justifies disclosure of records without delay or as otherwise permitted by law.

In addition, information about our customers, including personally identifiable information, may be disclosed as part of any merger, acquisition, debt financing or sale of all or part of company assets, as well as in the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership in which personally identifiable information could be transferred to third parties as one of our business assets.
